Uganda’s Rainy Season Brings New Obstacles for Steven Bukaya

We’ve partnered with disabled filmmakers around the world to document how climate change is impacting their communities. This is our second report from Uganda on Steven Bukaya, a livestock farmer with a limb difference.

Filmed a few months after our first video on Uganda’s dry season, this update focuses on the rainy season. With no upgrades to his home or livestock pen, Bukaya must crawl through the mud of his kraal each day just to maintain his farm. “In this home, we have been farmers for quite long,” he says, describing a tradition passed down from his parents. But increasingly unpredictable weather and inaccessible infrastructure are making that legacy harder to maintain.
